Thanks for the offer mart, but its mostly Majors or their derivatives like the early County tractors or 'Doe's' I am interested in .. The vintage scene has become very strong lately with rarer models fetching very high money, I was offered a Doe_Triple_D for about £10000 a few years ago (which was two majors bolted together) made by Ernest Doe & Sons which I couldnt afford then, and a couple of years later a similar one sold at Cheffins auctions for £63000 albeit in slightly better condition. I'd hang to your original stuff , as it is becoming more collectable by the day

ok no probs ,just as you mentioned old tractors and they have been at the back of a cupboard doing nothing ,most of his were old david brown t.v.o, dextas, majors, grey fergies ,and a 3 wheel farmall, the old international factory was only a mile or so from where he farmed,all his stuff was sold off or given away when he died ,,, tell you what the doe,s were some animal ,though i heard that some early ones had problems with castings breaking ,i know they were fetching astronomical prices
